I've just bought a Richbrook gear surround but am convinced its not for the Corsa although the packaging says it is. Anyway, the pic of the surround is below, can any1 confirm that this is either the right or wrong part or a pic would be even better (PS before any1 asks, I have been to try it on my corsa and it nowhere near fits)

Yes it is. you should have a rectangular wire that the gaither goes round.
you have to take off the original black gaiter and plastic bit that keeps the shape of the gaiter.

Yup, take the plastic thing from the inside of the gaitor off. Its a CorsaB one for definate. Better still buy a fancy colour-coded gaitor for £25 - really sets the interior off.

Yeah, that's what I was gonna say too mate. It goes the other way around to the way you've got it in the pic. The end with the lobe on it goes towards the back of the car. 
I bloody hope they fit! I'd be alot more annoyed than you! Mine's coming from the UK all the way to me here in Australia! It's not like I can take it and swap it over on a Saturday morning.  But I know that they fit. Seen alot of them fitted, they look way trick in the car.
